[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 623745, member: 17542"] LucyJ! I am so happy to read your post. Through every line, I hear acceptance. Acceptance by you and by him. What a gift. You are accepting him, you made plans so that the visit had the best chance to be successful, you used quiet and silence to manage yourself, you didn't engage, you see him periodically...and....lo and behold....the visit was good for you. It sounds like it was also good for him. You used your tools, Lucy. You used your tools when you were with difficult child. It's one thing to even begin to use our tools, it's another to use our tools when we are not with our difficult children, and it's still another to use them when we are together. What amazing progress you have made in dealing with...what is. I hope you are at peace today. It sounds like your difficult child is happy with his life. I hope you are both happy, today. [/QUOTE]
